  • Resumen

  • In the 1990s, entrepreneur James F. Patterson attempted to trademark "petrichor," the iconic smell of rain. His bizarre quest sparked legal debates about whether nature’s scents could be owned, pulling in meteorologists and patent lawyers — but ultimately, the storm of controversy ended with a resounding no.

    There’s no real record of a James F. Patterson from Oregon trying to patent or trademark "petrichor" in the 1990s (or any time).
    Petrichor is a real scent (discovered in 1964 by Australian scientists Bear and Thomas), and while people have tried to patent synthetic rain scents in products like perfumes and air fresheners, no one has tried to patent the actual natural smellof rain.👉 So:
    • ✅ "Petrichor" is real - Source
    • ❌ James F. Patterson story is fiction, part of the Brain Bamboozle magic!
